Your next step → konfetti!

We are looking for a backend engineer to help us build the next generation of the konfetti platform. Our ambitions for the product have grown, and so has what we need from our backend and architecture. This is a hands-on role with real ownership of technical direction, not a ticket queue. You will join a lean engineering team of four, working directly with our designer and product lead. Small team, short path from idea to production, and plenty of room to leave your mark. Become part of a world-class team with an office-first culture in Berlin!

Tasks

  • You

own backend features end to end

, from initial analysis through deployment and monitoring, including our partner-facing booking software (Backoffice)

  • You

shape our architecture

: you identify what is holding the product back, propose a direction, and then build it

  • You work across service boundaries, data models, queues, integrations, and performance, and you

improve monitoring and address technical debt

without being asked

  • You use

AI tooling as a core part of how you work

, including on parts of the stack outside your specialization

  • You think critically about requirements and

identify edge cases early

, drawing on your experience of what can go wrong in production

  • You

actively collaborate

with our tight-knit team of engineers, designer, and product lead in daily standups, planning, and technical discussions: asking questions when something is unclear, sharing blockers early, and contributing your perspective

Requirements

  • Several years of production backend experience, ideally with PHP/Laravel, and

a track record of systems you built

that other people still run •

Strong opinions about architecture

, backed by reasons and by having lived with the consequences of your past decisions

  • Solid experience with

AWS services

such as Lambda, SQS, EC2, ECS/Fargate, CloudFront, and Bedrock, and comfort owning what you ship in production •

Real fluency with AI-assisted development

. We use Claude Code day to day and can also offer Cursor. We want someone who already works this way and can push the rest of the team forward

  • A

maker mindset and a can-do attitude

: you would rather build the thing than write a document about building the thing

  • The

confidence to challenge how things are done today

, the respect to understand why they were done that way first, and the honesty to say when you do not know something
